Tear Drops wins on handicap debut

Fri 3rd Jun 2011, 18:43

Dual bumper winner Tear Drops made a winning start to handicap hurdling when making all under Jason McKeown to win the Dunhill Hurdle at Tramore this evening.

Afterwards winning trainer Pat Collins, from Bessbrook, Co Down, stated “it took us three and a half hours to come down but this makes it worth it!”

“It took Tear Drops a while to get going after her two bumper wins. This was her first handicap run today and Jason rode her to win her two bumpers. We’ve no plans for the moment.”
